SUBSTITUTIONS

We will be allowing teams to add emergency substitutes, if necessary, to avoid having to forfeit their position at the event. This is in-line with CECC’s broader guidelines related to roster continuity.

 

Rocket League teams will be allowed to add one emergency sub to their roster. Teams competing in all other titles will be allowed to add two emergency subs.

 

All additions must be confirmed in writing by Wednesday, April 16, 2025.
